Harry Travis (Rishworth) Ltd

Capability to undertake parlour work up to Merlin Robot milkers. 60 years in business. Specialists in dairy work for milk retailers: pasteurisers, separators, homogenisers, bottle fillers and washers.

Harry Travis (Rishworth) Limited is a well-known dairy and milking supplies provider established in 1954. The company based in Yorkshire works mainly in the north of England, but is increasingly attracting interest from all parts of the country and the Republic of Ireland.

The product range covers milking machines, pasteurisers, homogenisers, cream separators, bottle fillers, bottle washers and a host of spare parts for all manner of dairy engineering. The company is also a major supplier of aluminium foil for milk bottle caps and cream carton lids.

We don’t just supply new equipment, we also sell second-hand equipment that we have refurbished. For example with milk pasteurisers we bring them up to the latest environmental health standards with new valve systems where required and by adding computerised recorder units. This allows farmers an extra option when considering their milking and processing needs.

We have a broad spectrum of supply providing an all-round service to our customers, right from supplying good seed for grazing grasses, haymaking and silage products, animal medicines, fencing, protective clothing and footwear, gates, water and feed troughs, stock handling products, cleaning products, herbicides and pesticides. One stop shop from seed to silage and dairy to doorstep.

This certainly seems to be welcome as we are dealing with the 3rd generation of some family farmers, who can rely on the people in our team to supply quality service, products and engineering requirements.

With newly refurbished premises in the centre of the pretty Pennine village of Ripponden on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border, as well as the branch in Otley, West Yorkshire, the region’s dairy farmers can be assured they will be thoughtfully looked after.
